Come birding at the peak of spring migration. Join us as we explore rolling hills and lush woods, looking and listening for warblers, sparrows, red tailed hawks, black and turkey vultures and many other species. We may even see bald eagles and bobolinks. This "Rain or Shine" event will be led by accomplished birders Mike McGraw and Phil Whitmer, and co=sponsored by Bird Town PA, Newtown Square EAC, Garrett Williamson Foundation and CRC.
The Garrett Williamson property is a total of 240 acres and has approximately 4 miles of walking trails. The trails meander through open fields and meadows, riparian areas featuring a tributary to Crum Creek and primarily beech tree dominant forest. There are many diverse habitats and edges because the property is farmed, and they have an educational garden which is visited regularly by birds. The property is private and generally closed to the public so this would be a unique opportunity to visit this large piece of mostly undeveloped land in Newtown Square.
